Reinstated
In 1810, Black Fox and The Glass were both reinstated in a compromise agreement between these two competing factions. This led to an end of the councils of the Lower Towns meeting alternately in Willstown (near Fort Payne, Alabama) and Turkeytown (near present day Centre, Alabama) which were presided over by The Glass.
As the leading member of the National Council, it was Black Fox who signed the enactment officially putting an end to the Cherokee tradition of clan revenge. The following year, upon his death, he was succeeded by Chief Pathkiller.

My reinstated stimulus, my loyal....””
